It's amazing how up and about this board is now...

It takes me an hour or more every evening just to catch up on everything!

And all it took was winning 6 in a row, consolidating our finals spot and having a strong chance to finish top 2!

Who'd have thought...

Tbf, it is a very slow day at work today

Blakey actually kinda looks badass with the Capper hair

Hahaha... I was thinking he actually suited the hairstyle.

Paddy looked hilarious, and horse looked like one of those old school rockers who'd partied a little too hard in their youth.

Sad state of affairs

The pandemic and its costly economic and social effects have seen sporting clubs around the country shuttered.

In the case of Quambatook, 300 kilometres north-west of Melbourne, the problem runs deeper.

The club, which has been around in some form for more than 120 years, has run out of young people.

After more than a century, a proud country football and netball club is folding. Its demise tells a bigger story about rural Australia.

Happening everywhere in Victoria a lot of the young blokes I worked with in Ballarat were playing out in the country even as far away as Casterton etc. Without them they would struggle to make up numbers. Sad maybe but sign of the times.

Great article. Except for the minor detail that the score and margin had nothing to do with Casey or Brisbane and was actually Werribee v Northern Bullants.

I could be 20 drinks deep and completely off my face and I still wouldn't butcher an article badly as this one.

One of my favourite goal celebrations was when Paps did the high five run with the non-existent crowd during covid, but as a goal celebration it does somewhat pale into insignificance against this;



And no that's not photoshopped.
Wolves player in a cup game overnight in the UK actually had a hook placed behind the goal and when he scored, took out an eye patch and well you can see for yourself.

Has anyone heard from Grand Uncle Horace ?
He has not posted for a few weeks.

Can someone please explain to me how to sync audio commentary with a match replay on Kayo? Can't seem to figure it out as soon as it's off by even a millisecond then it just ends up lagging behind the play.

that's tom morris's job now, trying to sync video and audio on kayo, but he hasn't got the hang of it yet ...

Depends on the set up. I'd load up kayo to where the siren blow to start the game and hit pause. Then on a different device load up the commentary you want until the opening siren and hit pause. Then press play on both at the same time.

Deadset impossible.

I'll just settle for BT on the replay again.

Other option:

I'd load up kayo to where the siren blow to start the game and hit pause. Then on a different window load up the commentary you want until the opening siren, then press play on Kayo and hope you timed it right

Reason I didn't pick it up after the trial... drove me insane!!!

Now that's a good idea... except I don't know if Kayo will let you sign in twice.

I have no idea as I don't have it. I also don't know if SEN has the commentary for games saved elsewhere

It was the longest reign in British history but still 18 months shorter than the Swans premiership drought.

Am I the only one who thinks Eric Hipwood looks native American? Something about his facial structure.

I always think Rafael Nadal.

He looks like Buckbeak from Harry Potter.

But he also looks like Lord Voldemort from Harry Potter.

 

[GoTheSwannies]

I've always thought he looked like the grinch. But he definitely has a Nadal look about him.

Looks like Skeletor to me
